I've just updated my bios to the latest version available for my laptop.
The version released today(1 oct 2015). And installation was proper. But
that doesn't affects the wifi problem slightest.

Title:
  Wifi signals are unstable and drops after sometime in RTL8723BE

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm using ubuntu 14.04 on my new laptop from HP( HP pavillion
  15-ab032tx). It has got a network card from realtek which seems to be
  really buggy as of now. When I'm connected to a network either the
  wifi signals are damn low or they just vanish. And at the same time my
  other devices captures full wifi signals. Moreover the wifi just ain't
  works after suspend. Also I've tried updating the drivers. The current
  version of network driver is : rtl8723be.  My kernel version is
  :3.13.0-65-generic. But nothing changes. Please help me out. Also I'm
  not so experienced with ubuntu so kindly tell me everything in details
  so that I can follow the commands. Thanks in advance.
